17 Mar 2017 - The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has warned that due to fresh violence and drought-related famine, the world’s youngest country, South Sudan, is facing "the world's fastest growing refugee crisis." A UNHCR’s spokesperson told reporters in Geneva that alarming new levels of displacement of South Sudanese to neighbouring countries was putting an "impossible burden" on a region that is "significantly poorer and which is fast running short of resources to cope." http://bit.ly/2mDewh7
